Selmer (Paris) Super Balance Action #48320. Predecessor to the Mark VI, the SBA's are very much in demand for the dark sound and tight focus due to a slightly smaller bore. This one has about 60% of its original (we assume) lacquer intact Kind of an ugly-beauty, it has a great sound at a very reasonable price.

Conn "Transitional" Alto, #M243506. Made in 1930, these horns were a "transition" from the New Wonder model to the 6M, or "Lady Face" model. It has characteristics of both: the micro-tuner neck of the 6M; the back Eb key of the earlier New Wonder. This one is satin silver plated, with incredibly ornate Art Deco engraving on the bell. Overhauled in our shop back in 2015, it still has plenty of life in the pads, etc.Great playing, vintage sound and classy looks!

KeilwerthSX90R #121494. Black nickel silver body with gold lacquered keys makes for a very distinctive look on this near-mint condition alto. Concave mother-of-pearl key touches, never-stick G# key mechanism and adjustable palm key hights are just a few of the design advances made by Keilwerth. Huge sound and free-blowing.

Selmer (Paris) Mark VII #277835. When Selmer introduced the Mark VII in the early '70's, it was met with disdain by the professional community because it was such a radically different design. Now, people are re-considering the VII. They are very nice horns and compare favorably with many of the newer horns today. This one is in very nice cosmetic condition, with about 80% of its original lacquer intact. Pads on the old side, but still functional. Worth a test drive.

Selmer (Paris) Mark VI #68674. A very nice 5 digit serial number Mark VI tenor, vintage 1956. Many players favor these earlyMark 6's, saying they have a "darker" tone color. The only mechanical difference is the side Bb and C mechanism which is simpler, and I think better, than the metal ball configuration which came later. This one has about 80% of its original lacquer intact. The neck has the same serial number as that on the body. A few very minor dings; pads on the older side. Great big sound! Pics

King Zephyr Special #216081. Sterling silver neck, pearl inlay on all side keys and octave key, starburst engraving on the bell keys, triple strap-hook rings; this tenor has it all. Great vintage sound to boot. A classic!

Yamaha 475 Soprano, #009707. Yamaha's intermediate soprano makes a great horn for the doubler or advancing student. This one plays great!

Bundy (Keilwerth) Baritone #51213. The bell is stamped "Bundy" but this is definitely a Keilwerth-made horn. Selmer/Bundy farmed out the baritones to Keilwerth for a period of time during the 60's. This one has its clear Lucite key guard intact. Very space-age. A very nice low Bb baritone saxophone at a reasonable price.
